2 happy days when owning a boat, the day you buy it and the day you sell it. I just know a bunch of folks who have boats so it is easy for me to get my boat fix with out dropping a ton of money into that money pit.

I'd bet money that there are people here who spend more money on electronics and related items then I'll spend on my boat this year. Right now I have about $250 into the boat and its ready for the summer so I should be good to go. I do plan on buying a new prop for around $300 so this year I should have around $550 into my boat. I do agree its nice to know people who own boats but I don't think I could go without having one. I think I was around 8 when I got my first boat and pretty much have owned one sense then.

I have sailed must of my life and have owned Lasers and O'days. We had a Boston Whaler for a little while. My neighbor was a big tuna sports fisherman and I use to go out with him all the time. Now he owned a BOAT. Use to compete in the RI Tuna Tournament. Tuna

Nothing like a lazy afternoon on the water in a boat fishing for a buzz, good times.

If I remeebr correctly 1st down said he doesn't use much gas. My buddy has like a 25 footer and he fills it like 3 times a summer if that. A small fishing boat should not use much assuming you are using the current to troll (sp) with and you are not going 100 miles off shore.
